This Day: Visit us each day for a contemplative experience – an image, a Scripture reading, a quotation from Fruit of the Vine, a query, and a poem-prayer. On Saturday each week, we will feature an excerpted Quaker testimony. On Sunday each week, we will offer a Scripture reading, historic Quaker quotation, questions for consideration, and a personal essay from the Illuminate lesson for that week.

Scripture: John 14:26–30
“In times when my faith is tested and tried by the storms of life, I learn that God really is with me.” –Roxane Risner, Fruit of the Vine
Query: Are you experiencing peace within?
young woman, boo-boo healer,
songwriter, wonderful comforter,
mighty good, everlasting Mama,
peasant of peace,
filled with grace and grit
–Joann Renee Boswell, from “Mother” in Cosmic Pockets
